Studies of Religion acknowledges religion as a distinctive answer to the human need for meaning in life. An understanding of Religious Traditions provides a perspective for the human view of reality and deals with daily living as well as with the ultimate source, meaning and goal of life. This course enables students to come to an understanding that each religious tradition has its own integrity and contributes to a well-ordered society. The course emphasises the development of skills of analysis, independent research, collaboration and effective communication. Studies of Religion provides a learning experience that prepares students for further education and training, employment and full and active participation as citizens within society.

This course is divided into two sections. It is designed to promote an understanding and critical awareness of the nature and significance of religion and the influence of belief systems and religious traditions on individuals and within society. The two sections are: Religion and Belief Systems post 1945 and Religious Tradition Depth Studies - Christianity and Judaism.
